[SOLVED] Apache is binding to IPv6 - WHY?

With "Listen 80" in httpd.conf Apache it is binding to :::80 which is IPv6

If I put in httpd.conf "Listen 0.0.0.0:80" it binds to IPv4 0.0.0.0:80

The ebuild was recently upgraded Sept.20/06 with "no-suexec USE-flag" I don't see any other changes but after this upgrade my AMD64 started binding to IPv6 for no reason; my x86 boxes are binding to IPv4 correctly.

I've noticed that my AMD64 is showing in via ifconfig "inet6 addr"
eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:11:D8:D6:E0:CA
inet addr:10.0.0.104 Bcast:10.0.0.255 Mask:255.255.255.0
inet6 addr: fe80::211:d8ff:fed6:e0ca/64 Scope:Link

Where is the setting for this configuration?
